Just had my baby girl 7 weeks ago so I'm ready to lose this extra weight 😊. I'm also trying to up/not lose my milk supply while I do it so if any moms could give me advice that would be great 😊

    First, congrats on your new baby! Nursing is a big calorie burner all by itself. Keep water and a snack nearby--I always got so thirsty.

    My second baby weighed 10 lbs and I realized pretty quickly I wasn't keeping up with her demand for milk. I've seen online that it's just a placebo, but for me, fenugreek capsules helped a lot with increasing milk supply.

    For working out, I'd stick with walking for now. A really fit friend of mine had the mantra, "9 months on, 9 months off" --in other words, don't rush too fast to lose the baby weight. (Easy to say, I know.)

    All the best to you and your newborn.
